Israel: Jewish holidaymakers are unswerving in their loyalty to Israel, and have kept the tourist figures remarkably high, in spite of the present troubles. Just what can a holidaymaker expect to find in Israel?

The word 'hero' seems outdated. Disillusionment with war, politics and much religious activity has brought this about.
Tonight Magnus Magnusson introduces film illustrating the change in the hero image, and discusses with Dennis Potter the reasons why his play Son of Man portrays the person of Christ (played by Colin Blakely, above) as a kind of anti-hero.
